Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A 🗳️
There are 3 ways of transferring FSMO roles:
✑ Using graphical user interface available on a DC or any server/workstation with Administrative Tools / Remote Server Administration Tools installed.
✑ Using the command-line tool called ntdsutil.
✑ Using the PowerShell cmdlet Move-ADDirectoryServerOperationMasterRole.
However, we need to seize the RID role and thus must use the Force parameter.

I agree with Paullocostta. Since the problem statement says "DC1 has failed and cannot be repaired", FSMO must be forced instead of forwarded (with the "-Force" option). https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/addsadministration/move-addirectoryserveroperationmasterrole?view=win10-ps
